Not sure how you can claim that evangelicals were responsible for either the hurricane that destroyed power or the very shaky infrastructure there that made it susceptible to destruction. Seems simply a matter of blaming anyone you don't happen to like or agree with for everything bad that happens.

The "Christian Evangelicals" response to humaitarian crises is on a par with the Catholic Church's response to paedophilia. It's not what they did, it's what they DIDN'T do. Ignoring a problem is not the way to deal with it. The King will reply, "Truly I tell you, whatever you did not do for one of the least of these, you did not do for Me." (Matt 25:45)
Many religious leaders have taught that natural disasters are a form of punishment from God. Not only is this ignorance at its best from those who claim to know the bible, but it's also slander and blasphemy.
